FAQs
  • Your ideal bed size will depend on a variety of factors, including your size, age, space in your room, and if you share your bed. We recommend a minimum of a double bed if you share a bed with a partner, as it can sleep two adults comfortably. 

    Double beds are also popular as they don’t take up too much floor space, which is especially important for smaller homes and apartments. If you’re taller, you might prefer a king-size or super-king-size bed. 

    Small single beds and single beds are ideal for kids and teenagers. Small double beds are a popular choice for adults sleeping alone or for guest beds.

    Bunk beds 

    If you’re tight on space or looking to add a fun element to a shared bedroom, bunk beds might be exactly what you need. 

    Divan beds 

    Known for their versatility, divan beds offer both a sleek design and practical storage solutions. Unlike traditional bed frames, divans come with a solid base which requires no assembly, and is customisable with drawers for storage.

    Ottoman beds and Storage Beds

    Ottoman beds provide ample storage space, with a lifting system that allows the bed base to be raised, providing additional storage space underneath.

    When space in your bedroom is at a minimum, storage beds offer a clever solution to keep your belongings neatly tucked away. These beds come with built-in storage options like drawers or a lift-up mattress base, making them ideal for small bedrooms or for those looking to maximise their storage space.

    Adjustable beds 

    Adjustable beds are one of the most mobility friendly bed frames we offer. With the touch of a button, you can elevate your head or feet to better align your body for reading, watching TV, or getting a good night’s sleep.

    You’ll need a special type of mattress to be compatible with an adjustable bed.

    Sofa beds

Although most people see a single bed as a good kid’s bed, it can also be used for adults. 

In fact, many adults who don’t share a bed with their partner or live in a small space opt for single beds.

Of course, it all comes down to personal preference. If you move a lot in your sleep or just like the additional space, you might be better suited to a small double, double bed, or even a king-size depending on your preference.

Single beds are a popular choice for kids' bedrooms due to their smaller size. But they can also be ideal for teenagers and adults.

If you have a small home or apartment, a single bed frame with storage can be a great way of maximising your space.

You can find plenty of single bed frames with storage with us, including single divans
